Celebrating 25 Years of Race for the Cure in Italy
This year marks the 25th anniversary of Race for the Cure, the charity sporting event dedicated to raising funds and awareness for breast cancer. To commemorate this milestone, Italy’s main state museums will be opening their doors for free to participants of the 2024 edition of the race, announced by the Italian culture ministry.
To take advantage of this offer, participants must wear the official Race for the Cure shirt and bring their donation receipt for the event. The Rome edition of Race for the Cure will take place this weekend, with the museum offer valid from 10-12 May.
Some of the Rome museums and landmarks that will be accessible for free to Race for the Cure participants include the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, Palazzo Barberini, Castel S. Angelo, and the Etruscan Museum at Villa Giulia.
Following Rome, the Race for the Cure will also be held in Bari, Bologna, Brescia, and Matera, where the free museum initiative will continue to be offered. For more information, visit the Komen Italia website.
